Hoping for Change
Will you wear my shoes?
Trying to change someone is an expression of hope. That another might do or say something that changes our perspective of them. Through verbal expression, body language, actions, and reactions; when we try to change a person we shame them for who they currently are. That is manipulation. It is not genuine.
We are not operating from a place of authenticity. We are operating from a place of fear to ensure our safety. Because we don’t like to lose or feel emotional pain, and the other person is acting in such a way that doesn't suit us.
As a species we are not special, all of us are capable of arriving into the same magic. In loving ourselves so completely and truly listening to our intuition, our power emanates from us and our worlds sync up with our desires.
As individuals, we are unique in the way that we each have our own personal viewpoint created by our experiences and what we have done with them.
"As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." - Marianne Williamson
The proverbial glasses of life remain fused to our faces. We cannot take them off and ask someone else to watch the world through our eyes. We can, however; let our truths be known to the ones we surround ourselves with and internalize that if they are meant to walk beside us... they will be willing to try on our shoes.
We have been given powerful gifts and when we use them in unison, the world becomes magic.
About the Creator

A poetic expression of deeper water. An outlet for my philosophies. A refuge for deep-thinkers who are curious about root causes and connections. A home for the profound within me. A place for love to grow.
